Capabilities and Services

Diversity Equity & Inclusion

IW Consulting Group (IWCG) has assembled a team of industry thought leaders who are passionate about helping companies to create diverse and inclusive cultures.  We believe that every employee, contractor, or consultant who contributes to the success of your company, should feel engaged and valued.  Diversity, equity, and belonging is achievable when it is fueled by committed leadership and strong and sustainable strategy.  That is where we come in.  Our team’s knowledge of DEI industry best practices, experience in project management, change management and communications, and data analytics will fuse together to formulate the business case, the strategic plan, equity assessments and the stakeholder engagement that is critical to your inclusive culture journey and reaching your DEI destination and sustaining those efforts. 

Our experience differentiates us from our competitors.  We are not new jumpers on the diversity bandwagon, our team has over 25 years combined experience leading diversity programs for global brands including The Coca-Cola Company, JP Morgan Chase, and D&B to name a few. 

If you looked for a client list, you would not find one.  Our relationships with our clients are confidential unless the client chooses share.  Because of the sensitivity of the work that we provide our clients: employee disputes, workplace risks, DEI strategic plans, and anti-race and unconscious bias training, we do not share client information, our lips are sealed. 

Supplier Diversity & Inclusion

IW Consulting Group specializes in supplier diversity program solutions. Our team of industry experts will develop customized strategic plans to create a new initiative or enhance an existing program; both offerings are designed to maximize diverse supplier utilization and increase diversity spend. Our supplier diversity solutions will ensure compliance with contract requirements of large corporations and governmental agencies and increase competitiveness in the RFP process for contracts with these entities.
